for me using ubuntu server 18.04.03 LTS running MariaDB 10.1.41 and FOGPROJECT 1.5.7

this was the final solution

with the installation / upgrade of fogproject choose a password for mysql : type_here_your_fog_database_password

then make sure that password is the same as your mysql database:

login to mysql root with command = mysql -u root

then use following command to make passwords match fogproject

SET PASSWORD FOR ‘root’@‘localhost’ = PASSWORD(‘type_here_your_fog_database_password’);
